Galaxy morphology provides clues about the processes in the understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies. In this respect, the prediction of optical-band morphologies at high redshifts requires ultraviolet (UV) images of local galaxies with various morphologies. We simulated optical images at high redshifts using more diverse and high-quality nearby galaxies obtained through the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) UV observations. We present a quantitative analysis of the morphology of galaxies at near-ultraviolet (NUV) and simulated optical images. We also present a correlation between the isophotal-shape parameter and UV colors for nearby early-type galaxies.
